Abstract
Trichomonas gallinae isolates from pigeon and chicken were amplified by polymerase chain reaction using Fe hydrogenase gene and characterized by molecular tools to determine the geographical location and the sequences were analyzed phylogenetically. The isolates in the present study were 100% similar to T. gallinae isolates of Iran and Austria. Random samples found positive for trichomoniasis in culture and throat swab in live birds were confirmed by PCR. The positive samples showed clear band at 290 bp.
